Materials for Lake Projects

Raising grade is the first job on most sites around Lake. Fill dirt builds low spots up and brings a pad to height before any base course goes down.

Once the pad is at grade, 610 limestone is the material that takes the load. Size No.

610 Limestone goes under driveways, parking pads, shed pads and patio sub-base.

Where the ground is soft and you want a surface that binds on its own, clay gravel is the older Mississippi answer. Clay Gravel is pit-run gravel with enough clay and fines to pack into a graded drive or farm road.

For drainage, the clean open stone sizes do the work. #57 Limestone handles French drains, foundation drains and drive surfacing, and #67 Stone is one size down for the same kind of work.

Finishing materials matter too. Masonry Sand beds brick and block work and fills paver joints, and Top Soil builds a workable layer over tight clay for lawns and beds.

Ground and Conditions in Lake

Across the Jackson Prairie and the Yazoo Clay belt, the ground is alkaline, calcareous clay sitting over the state's best known expansive clay. That clay lifts when it takes up water and pulls down as it dries.

The movement is almost never even across a slab or a drive. An under-built base shows it first, which is why the fill and the base course carry the load here.

Keeping soil moisture steady is the whole job. Water that gets under a slab or pavement through an open joint, a downspout or a leaking line causes more damage than a wet season does.

Watch the slopes as well. The clay slumps where it has been cut or loaded, and edges drop away after water gets underneath.

Riprap and clean stone at outlets and edges help hold those spots.

Work runs nearly year round, so timing is rarely the problem. The clay is at its worst in a wet spell after a long dry summer, when it takes up water fastest.
